Kubiak sparkles in Denver victory
WASHINGTON (AP) — Gary Kubiak, sub
bing for an ailing John Elway, threw two short
first-half touchdown passes as the Denver Bron
cos beat the Washington Redskins 14-10 Monday
night, all but sewing up the AFC West title.
Safety Dennis Smith also played a key role,
twice stripping the ball from Jamie Morris, the
first time setting up a Denver touchdown, the
second time stopping a Washington threat at the
Broncos’ 10.
Kubiak completed just 13 of 27 passes for 123
yards, but the completions included a 1-yard
touchdown pass to Melvin Bratton in the first
quarter and a 5-yarder to Ricky Nattiel in the sec
ond. The defense took over as temperatures
dropped and winds up to 30 mph swirled around
RFK Stadium.
Bobby Humphrey carried 31 times for 110
yards for Denver, which at 9-2 is four games
ahead in the division with five games left as they
seek their third title in four years. Washington
dropped to 5-6, in deep trouble in their quest for
an NFC wild-card berth.
It was the first game between the two since the
January 1988 Super Bowl, won 42-10 by Wash
ington. But injuries and attrition had taken a toll
on both teams. Just 10 players on each team who
started that game started Monday night.
One of the non-starters was Elway, who came
down with a stomach virus in late afternoon that
left him in the locker room for the entire game.
Doug Williams, the Washington quarterback
who was the MVP in the Super Bowl, also was on
the bench after starting two games on his return
from back surgery. Washington was alsop
for the first time without defensive end Dexte
Manley, suspended for life last week fora
substance abuse infraction and his replacemem
Markus Koch, injured a knee in the third qua:
ter.
It took just 13 yards of offense to producen
touchdowns, one for each team.
On Denver’s first possession, Fred Stole
sacked Kubiak, stripping the ball and recovem,
on the Broncos’ 8. T hen Morris dashed uptli!
middle for the score on the first play. 1
The Broncos reciprocated the first time Was!
ington got the ball.when Smith stripped the lit
from Morris. Tyrone Braxton picked it up ait;
returned it 35 yards to the Redsins’5.
Cowboys’ Martin out for remainder of season
IRVING (AP) — Kelvin Martin,
the leading wide receiver for the
Dallas Cowboys, will miss the rest of
the season because of a knee injury,
the team announced Monday.
Martin will undergo surgery on
his left knee Tuesday morning,
Cowboys spokesman David Pelletier
said.
Coach Jimmy Johnson originally
announced Monday that Martin
would miss the Thanksgiving Day
game against the Philadelphia Ea
gles, and was optimistic he would be
back before the end of the season.
But late Monday, doctors deter
mined that Martin had a torn ante
rior cruciate ligament, ending his
season, Pelletier said.
Martin caught 7 passes for 82
yards before he was injured in Sun
day’s 17-14 loss to the Miami Dol
phins.
“Kelvin was our key receiver,”
Johnson said. “Losing him will really
hurt our passing game. He can make
some big plays for you.”
Johnson said James Dixon and
Derrick Sheppard will probably start
at wide receiver although “Sheppard
has an ankle bothering him.”
Cornell Burbage and Bernard
Ford will be backups and Johnson
said the Cowboys could active So
Ankrom off the reserve squad for:
surance.
“We’re going to be a little thin
the position,” Johnson said.
Johnson said the 10th lossofit
season was particularly painful h
cause it came primarily on DanM
ino’s 48-yard “Hail Mary” tone
down pass to end the first half.
History
(Continued from page 7)
Arkansas and beat Texas to clinth
the conference title.
While the 1987 Aggies and the
1989 Aggies are tied together by a
thread of history, the two teams are
worlds apart in attitudes.
The A&M football program, un
der Sherrill, reflected a lot of Sher
rill’s attitude. The Aggies were con
fident, cocky and more than eager to
talk about how good they were. Bad-
mouthing and taunting the opposi
tion were common.
But this year’s team reflects the at
titude of its new coach.
Slocum is laid back and calm. He
is a firm believer of letting your ac
tions speak for themselves.
“I’ve always talked to our players
about trying to play with class and
trying to win with class,” Slocum
said. “I’ve always thought that ac
tions should speak for you.
“After a touchdown, just lay the
ball down. (Players) have big num
bers on the front of their jerseys and
their names on the back. Everybody
knows who you are and what you
did, so there’s no reason to try and
bring more attention to yourself.”
Slocum’s attitude is reflected in
the lack of unsportsmanlike conduct
penalties in the Aggies’ first nine
games.
“I think we’ve only had one of
those this year,” Slocum said. “It was
in the TCU game and we never
really figured out where it came
from.”
There also has been a noticeable
lack of pregame taunting. Slocum
has done away with the cockiness
and replaced it with a healthy re
spect for opponents. .
Whether history will be kind and
repeat itself, sending A&M to the
Cotton Bowl, remains to be seen. If
things go well for Slocum and the
Aggies, they could end up like the
1987 Aggies . . . victorious in Dallas
on New Year’s Day.
Sierra determined
after MVP snubbini
ARLINGTON (AP) — Ruben
Sierra, who took second in the
American League most valuable
player award balloting said from
his home in San Juan, Puerto
Rico, that not winning will just
make him better next year.
“I feel sad but there is nothing
1 can do about it,” Sierra said by
telephone Monday. “It will make
me work harder next year. ”
Milwaukee’s Robin Yount won
the award. He batted .318, hit 21
homers and drove in 103 runs.
Texas’ Sierra batted .306 with 29
home runs and a league-leading
119 RBIs.
Yount received eight first-
place votes for a total of 256
points, and was the only player
named on all 28 ballots by mem
bers of the Baseball Writers’ As
sociation of America.
Sierra was second with six tint-
place votes and a total of 228
points. Sierr

U.S. thinking of the gold,
preparing for World Cu]
PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad (AP)
— The victory was just a few hours
old, and already the United States
was talking about the next step —
getting ready for the World Cup.
By beating Trinidad and Tobago
1-0 Sunday, the United States ad
vanced to the World Cup finals for
the first time since 1950. Since the
American Soccer League and the
Western Soccer League don’t start
until the spring, the national team
will have to prepare the players it
self.
“We will have 15 to 20 games
against international opponents,”
said Sunil Gulati, the team’s sched

“It’s going to give us the ex|

the world,” U.S. coach Bob Cans*
said. “You can show them all
films you want, but it’s not
